Thumbling by Brothers Grimm

Born the size of a thumb, a clever little boy outwits danger after danger using only his wits and courage. Carried off by animals, stolen by thieves, and swallowed by a cow, he always finds a way back home. The plot is fast-paced and humorous, with wild adventures and clever escapes. A tiny hero with a big spirit. A delightful tale of cleverness and resilience.
